- Description
- Aluminum and bamboo tabletop stove. The stove is made of three distinct components, described by its creator as "the bottom receptacle, which housed the lamp oil; the middle portion, which functioned as a rim to hold the bottom container and to attach the small tubes for inserting the fabric wick; and the top part, which constituted the stove's upper section." The metal components were made reusing bomb parts found by the prisoners in the re-education prison camp. The top part was derived from a Guigoz milk can.The lid is connected using bamboo or tree branches. Barbed wire pieces and zinc coins were also used to create smaller components.
